Handbook of Industrial Mycologyby An
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This single-source reference provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in industrial mycology. The handbook provides a framework of basic methods, tools, and organizational principles for channeling fungal germplasm into the academic, pharmaceutical, and enzyme discovery laboratories, and discusses the complex range of processes involved in the discovery, characterization, and profiling of bioactive fungal metabolites. This most authoritative book provides examples of several recently marketed fungal metabolites for clear demonstration and recognizes the impact of fungi on applications in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, agricultural, and agrochemical industries. Book News Annotation:In a broad reference to the fundamental science and methodologies
underlying the use of fungi in industrial processes, industrial and
academic researchers discuss mycology, industrial mycology, and
fungal biology; the discovery and biosynthesis of fungal secondary
metabolites; fermentation, strain improvement, and bioconversion;
metabolic engineering; heterologous protein expression in yeasts and
filamentous fungi; toxigenic fungi and mycotoxins; and fungal
secondary metabolites in the biological control of crop pests. Among
the specific topics are cell cycle regulation in the morphogenesis
and development of fungi, fungal germplasm for drug discovery and
industrial applications, genomics and gene regulation of the
aflatoxin biosynthetic pathway, and applications of fungal
bioconversion to the manufacture of pharmaceuticals.
